Chhath Puja, a major Hindu festival dedicated to the Sun God, is being celebrated across India. Today, the third day of the festival, is dedicated to offering the first 'Arghya' to the setting sun. Devotees will gather at riverbanks and other open spaces to perform the rituals and offer prayers. The 'Arghya' is a symbolic offering of water, fruits, and sweets to the Sun God, seeking his blessings for a prosperous year.
